Henry, the voluntary observer for Sevier county. The Bullion Bul-lion and Cottonwood canyons have lietn rendered almost impassable by the huge rock that have fallen from I ' the cliffs, and the waters in the creeks j have increased in volume nearly DO per cent. ; Dr. E. S. "Wright entered upon his . new duties as associate with Dr. Keogh at the Keojfh-McKenna hospital on i ; fcf.rond North, taking the place made : vacant by the lamentable death of Dr. i ' P. J. McKenna. Another wing to the hospital will be added, doubling- its ; ! ' ' present capacity. The Twenty-second battery received its cannon, and now both the Twelfth and the Twenty-second batteries of light artillery at Fort Douglas are equipped with six guns each and carriage car-riage and caison appurtenances. These cannon are of the regulation type, Hotchkiss guns of 3.2-inch calibre. The horses are also here. This looks as though both batteries will remain permanently per-manently at Tort Douglas, which totals to-tals a force of 326 men. Several of the leaders of the Salvation Salva-tion Army will be visitors to this city next week. Commander Booth Tucker, Chief Secretary Edward Higgins. a number of the Army's best soloists and national staff band, will arrive here in ' a special ear from the east on Wednes day, Dec.

"As a result, the populace is jubilant. Sheep have been i dying and things were beginning to ' look desperate in part of trie country. "Now there is four or five inches of tsnow on the desert. After the lack of snow for several seasons and the drouth of lat summer, it is more than welcome." ; Company H. N. G. U.. is to be launched as one of the best dressed, finest appearing and aristocratic military mili-tary organization in the west. It is to receive the special patronage of Senator Sena-tor Kearns and will therefore take on the name of the "Kearns Rifles."

The Silver King reported among its I ,i shareholders Tuesday with the usual dividend in the sum of $100,000 and if impressions are not altogether misleading, mislead-ing, will follow it up on Christmas eve with an extra in some amount, if it . does not attain the proportions of a 1 reeular. The distribution of yesterday's : I dividend increases the total that has i - .. been paid in 1901 to $1,175,000, so that ! should an extra not come, the disap- jt pointment will not be a serious one.
